🍂 **A Little Summer Warmth in the Heart of Fall** 🍁

Today was one of those beautiful fall days when summer seems reluctant to let go. The sun was warm, the air felt more like August than October, and I found myself simply enjoying the afternoon watching the boys play, their laughter and energy filling the day.

Meanwhile, the squirrels were busy with a mission of their own, scurrying from tree to tree, gathering and hiding away their winter feast. It's funny how nature knows what's coming, even when the warmth of the sun tries to convince us otherwise.

And despite the summerlike temperatures, there is no mistaking that fall is here. There's something different in the air. The earthy scent of fallen leaves, the drying grasses, the changing trees, and that unmistakable autumn fragrance that I wish I could bottle up and keep all year long.

I love these little moments. Watching childhood unfold in the sunshine while nature quietly prepares for another season. The boys don't seem to notice the passing of time, and perhaps that's the beauty of it all. They're simply enjoying today.

Before long, the warm afternoons will give way to frosty mornings, bare branches, and perhaps a blanket of snow. But today, we had a little more sunshine, a little more laughter, and another beautiful autumn memory to tuck away. 🍁❤️

Brothers: they can fuss and fight over the silliest things, but let one disappear around the corner and the other is calling out to find him. And sometimes, all it takes is a little hug from your bro to make everything right again. ❤️

I hope they always stay this close—looking out for each other, laughing together, and knowing that no matter what life brings, they’ll always have each other. There’s nothing quite like a brother’s love.

There’s a certain brilliance to fall in Montana. The mountainsides seem to come alive in gold and orange, and the vivid yellow aspens glow against the evergreens, while the last of the wildflowers try to steal the moment and give the bees 🐝and other pollinators a last kiss of nectar before winter hits. Add pumpkins on the porch and color in the trees, and it feels like the whole world is celebrating the season.

We also got to watch another fox hunt, and it was every bit as beautiful and exciting as the first. Watching the women, their horses, and the hounds wind across the hillsides and through the golden fields was such a thrill—and so much fun to be part of.

I think the star of the golden hour show had to be zoomie the rooster, though, showing off his spectacular mullet 😂! What a character !

Fall is my favorite time of year—not just for what I see, but for everything I get to feel: the crisp evening air, the rustle of leaves underfoot, the smell of wood smoke drifting from a campfire, and all those cozy sweater-weather moments. Apple c***r, warm flavors, cool nights, and a sky full of color… I want to take in every bit of it.

Montana, you sure know how to make fall beautiful. 🍂🎃💛

Meet my new neighbors and friends: a beautiful mule deer mama and her triplets. They’ll pause and look right at me while I take their pictures, and sometimes it feels as if they know I’m only there to admire them.

I still can’t believe I get to see so many deer right in my own backyard. It reminds me of Indiana, where deer were part of the familiar rhythm of home. Montana feels different—the skies are bigger, the winds stronger, and the mountains mightier—but fall carries that same feeling. The crisp air, the changing leaves, the golden light, the earthy smells…somehow it all feels new and familiar at once.

I’m grateful for these quiet moments with my wild neighbors, and for the way this new place is beginning to feel like home. 🧡

And there goes our little deer whisperer—an aspiring photographer heading out onto the state land to get closer to her subjects, walking right into that golden-light glow. 🧡

Another beautiful Montana fall day, wrapped in that warm sunset glow. 🍂

The pasture, the horses, and these girls soaking up the last light—simple moments that make this season feel so special. I could watch the sky turn those soft shades of pink and gold every evening and never grow tired of it. Montana, you sure know how to put on a show. 🤎
